Who is Giovanni Narváez?

Giovanni Marcelo Narváez Narváez is a Chilean footballer that played as an attacking midfielder for several professional Chilean clubs; his last club was Antofagasta of the Primera División.

After starting professionally with Antofagasta in 2005 and playing for two seasons, Narváez joined San Marcos de Arica, where he had the most productive period of his career, scoring 16 goals in 91 appearances. In January 2010, he joined Coquimbo Unido and, after one season, returned to Antofagasta, where he won the first major honour of his career, the Apertura Primera B title.

In May 2012, Narváez was asked to resign from Antofagasta after making obscene gestures toward the club's supporters in a match against Rangers as an angry protest against his mid-game substitution for his former teammate, Pablo Lavandeira.
